Installing Hardware Options, Hot-Pluggable Adding PCI Hot Plug Expansion Boards The PCI/PCI-X slots of the ProLiant DL760 G2 I/O board are hot-plug-capable and support a variety of industry-standard expansion boards. For a list of supported I/O expansion boards, refer to the HP QuickSpecs for the ProLiant DL760 G2 servers: www.hp.com/products/servers/platforms CAUTION: Do not attempt this hot-plug operation if your operating system does not provide PCI/PCI-X Hot Plug support or if you do not have the appropriate drivers installed. Failure to properly execute a hot-plug operation can halt your system. Refer to Figure 5-21, Figure 5-22, and Table 5-6 for definitions of the PCI Hot Plug LEDs. To add a PCI/PCI-X expansion board into PCI Hot Plug slots 1 through 11: 1. Open the I/O lid. 2. If the PCI Hot Plug green LED is on, power down the slot by pressing the PCI Hot Plug button corresponding to the slot or by using a PCI Hot Plug software application. Wait until the flashing green LED is off. For more information about PCI Hot Plug LEDs, refer to "PCI Hot Plug LED Indicators" earlier in this chapter. CAUTION: To avoid system power-down and subsequent data loss, do not open the slot release lever unless the green PCI Hot Plug LED of the slot is off. NOTE: The PCI Hot Plug button allows you to press the button again within five seconds of the first press to cancel the action. 3. Disconnect the cables to the PCI/PCI-X board when the green LED of the slot is off. 5-50 HP ProLiant DL760 Generation 2 Server User Guide

The PCI/PCI-X slots of the ProLiant DL760 G2 I/O board are hot-plug-capable and
support a variety of industry-standard expansion boards. For a list of supported I/O
expansion boards, refer to the HP QuickSpecs for the ProLiant DL760 G2 servers:
www.hp.com/products/servers/platforms
CAUTION:
Do not attempt this hot-plug operation if your operating system does not

installed. Failure to properly execute a hot-plug operation can halt your system.
Refer to Figure 5-21, Figure 5-22, and Table 5-6 for definitions of the PCI Hot Plug
LEDs. To add a PCI/PCI-X expansion board into PCI Hot Plug slots 1 through 11:
1.
Open the I/O lid.
2.
If the PCI Hot Plug green LED is on, power down the slot by pressing the PCI
Hot Plug button corresponding to the slot or by using a PCI Hot Plug software
application. Wait until the flashing green LED is off. For more information about
PCI Hot Plug LEDs, refer to “PCI Hot Plug LED Indicators” earlier in this
chapter.
CAUTION:
To avoid system power-down and subsequent data loss,
do not
open the slot release lever unless the green PCI Hot Plug LED of the slot is off.
NOTE:
The PCI Hot Plug button allows you to press the button again within five seconds
of the first press to cancel the action.
